For the Evening Capital
The City Cemetery.


Mr.. EDITOR AS you furnish
materials and workmanship for the
good of the people without pay, so
as to get the best idea for the i'm
provement of the Cemetery, | will
give you a detail of my proposed
plan you published few days ago.
The trouble is to get the people to
see and understand how an improve
ment will look before it is finished.
| propose to grade and terrace into
lots the west part Of the Cemetery
from North Avenue to the creek,
like the Oak Hill Cemetery, George
town, ID. c. The sale of the lots
will amount to more than the ex-
pense of grading and removing the
dead; and make an avenue from
west gate to the creek and around
the Cemetery to the south of Gene
terry to North west street, and grade
the center avenues to that. Buy
enough of the "Meadow Lot" to
make the South avenue. Make the
avenue on the water of shells, and
plant a h edge around the South
avenue, and there will be many
beautiful lots around South avenue
for vaults. Have all the old wood
en- fences taken down and permit
no more fences of any kind to be
put up. Cemeteries in other cities
do not have any fences around the
lots. Look at the expense of the
iron fences, which there are no ne
cessity for, and which destroys the
beauty of the Cemetery.
The plan | propose will make
cemetery all will be proud of, and
give many lots.
| have read the communication
in the CAPITAL by "Progress" and
others, in regard to the want of
new Cemetery, and cannot see the
necessity for it, when there is so
much waste ground in the old one.
The Naval Academy have it's Gem
etery, st. Mary's Church has theirs;
the colored people have their own,
and most every family in the city
has lot in one or the other of
these cemeteries, and it will be
many years before they are filled
up.
To make new Cemetery across
the creek with bridge and a
draw will cost ELECTROMAGNETIC 81, 600
20 acres of land graded at
5000 per acre, ................ 4,O00
ae 600
Where can a company expect to
get this money returned, with our
small population ?
am not one of those who can
see the "New Annapolis" with its
10000 population /! l have read in
the CAPITAL where some writer
wants the superintendent removed.
Who could have done more than
he has done without money
The trouble is, Annapolis is very
healthy city; the people do not die
off very fast;the superintendent does
not get money enough to employ
any one to help him to make i'm
proyements. The living should be
so glad they live IN such a healthy
community, they should keep the
Cemetery in good condition. Many
of the western cities have their
cemeteries out of town on the side
of rail roads so that the hearse and
hacks 60 to the depot for the dead,
and friends 60 to the cemetery in
the cars.

SPEAKER Carlisle had a long in.
terview inflicted upon him while in

question-"What do you think of

replied
president Cleveland has given
to the country a safe, strong, clean
and healthy administration. The
complaints that he has not turned
out the Republican office-holders
as rapidly as he should are exagger-
ated. lie has acted, as he honestly
believed, for the best interests of
the country, and his party aud you
will find upon investigation that he
is very strong with the people. He
has made us a good President. |
think he is the most industrious
man | ever saw. He certainly works
too hard, but it all comes from his
honest desire to make his admins
tration satisfactory to himself and
the people. Mr.. Cleveland desires
nothing more than the approval of
his own conscience and the just
commentator of the country.
These he cannot fail to have.
Mr.. Carlisle thinks the renomi-
nation Of Mr.. Cleveland viii make
the New England States doubtful.

states will reyolutionize them, and

A PAlPA5lE SWINDlE

German Citizens BeInR Swindled by a I,o.

the Omcial Sanction or the German

CaICAGO, April 21.-A local paper says
One Of the most impudent and bare faced
lottery sche mes ever devised is now be.
ing operated throughout the United
States. This swindle is mainly designed
for victimizing the German-speaklng con-
tingent in the large cities, and has al.
ready achieved tolerab BILE measure Of
success. The modus operandi is quite
simple, as will be seen by the following
account:
A concern styling itself "Messrs. ThIeie
& Co.. Bankers, Hamburg, Germany"
through an agent in Baltimore. Nd, has
flooded the country with letters address sed
10 German residents Of all large cities.
These letters contain q doublesheet cir.
cular, twelve inches by eight, printed In
Germ an and English. This circular gives
a glowing description Of the Two Hun
dred and Ninety-second German Govern.
meut Lottery Of the City OF Hamburg"
1t outlines the scheme Of the lottery, the
prizes ranging in the different series
from $4,000 to 100000 marks.
They announce that on each ticket,
to insure gcnuinencss, will be printed the
Government coat Of arms. Enclosure No.
2 is a small o5long slip, printed as fol-
lows: 1.-THE amount may by RENTED by
means Of an American Express Compapy's
money order, which must be made pay
able at Hamburg, Germany, by the com
pany's agent residing at your place of
living. You will please send the order in
registered letter" After making the
American EXPRESS Company their aocred-
tied agents in a number Of large cities
they forward Enclosure No. g. which is an
envelope with their Hamburg address.
Baron Won Nordenfiycht, the German
Consul, who was seen regarding the mat.
ter, said: "This is one Of tho most
palpable swindles have ever had brought
to my notice. There is no such lottery as
the German Government Lottery To
speak more forcibly, the government Of
the German Empire has no connection or
control of any lottery or premium enter
prise whatever. This is not only fraud,
but an insult to the government repre-
sent I presume the express company
will stop the issuing of money orders
when the swndle is exposed. but will
also send them an official notification if
requisite"
